This is already my fourth pair of these gloves. I've been using them for two seasons, both for riding a dirt bike and a fast scooter. In short — they're great. I'm just waiting for a sale :) Best regards.
Mechanix Wear M-Pact Tactical Leather Gloves
Versatile and highly durable gloves designed specifically for professional soldiers and special units operators. Mechanix Wear gloves are a very good choice for people who appreciate gloves that are lightweight, comfortable, protect the hand well and provide a secure grip.
Durable DuraHide leather, TrekDry material
The inner part (grip side) and the upper part on the thumb and index finger are made of durable DuraHide leather, which provides high abrasion resistance. The upper part is made of breathable TrekDry® material, which reduces hand perspiration. The cuff is fastened with Velcro.
Hand protection, D30 material, TPR plastic panels
Protection for the palm, metacarpus, fingers, and knuckles is provided by D3O® material and panels made of TPR (Thermal Plastic Rubber, compliant with EN13594) - they work well as protection against abrasions and impacts of the hand against external elements. The division of the panels into segments allows for easy bending of the fingers.
Mechanix gloves are perfect for survival expeditions, work in the car workshop, DIY, asg or paintball games. Mechanix gloves are also popular with special forces operators.
Protection standards
The gloves meet the protective standard EN388 at level 4111XP in terms of resistance to mechanical risks, which means:
- 4: abrasion resistance (on a scale of 0–4)
- 1: cut resistance (on a scale of 0–5)
- 1: tear resistance (on a scale of 0–4)
- 1: puncture resistance (on a scale of 0–4)
- X: cut resistance – TDM test (ISO 13997) (on a scale of A–F)
- P: impact protection (test passed)
The scales specified in the EN388 standard define the level of glove protection: a value of 0 indicates no protection, while the highest values (4, 5) indicate the maximum level of resistance.
When testing using the TDM method (ISO 13997), letter markings are used, where A indicates the lowest level of protection and F the highest.
The X marking indicates that the given parameter was not tested or is not applicable. The P marking indicates that the glove meets the requirements for impact protection.

TPR, or thermoplastic rubbeTPR, or thermoplastic rubber, is a material that combines the properties of rubber and plastic. It is flexible and durable, and is often used in the manufacture of tool handles, gaskets, footwear, and many other products, as it provides comfort, good grip and wear resistance.r, is a type of synthetic material that combines the properties of rubber and plastic. TPR is characterized by its flexibility and abrasion resistance.
TrekDry is a modern material characterized by high breathability. It effectively wicks moisture away from the surface of the skin, which helps to keep it dry and thermally comfortable during intense physical activity. It fits to the shape of the hand, ensuring freedom of movement and increasing precision during various activities.
D3O is a modern material with intelligent molecules that move freely during normal use. However, at the moment of impact, they fuse together, absorbing and dispersing energy, then rapidly return to an elastic state. As a result, the material effectively reduces vibration, protects hands from injury and reduces hand strain while working.
Durahide DRY is a technology that uses specially treated Durahide natural leather. The treatment makes the leather waterproof while maintaining high breathability and flexibility.

The gloves are good, but they do not provide sufficient protection for the hands against sharp objects or plants. However, they are excellent for shooting and performing precision tasks.
-
The gloves are very durable and comfortable. They fit the hand perfectly, provide excellent protection, and do not restrict finger movement. They perform great both during outdoor use and technical work. They are made of high-quality materials.
-
I also got these new MPact 1 gloves in black this May. They are just as I wanted. I need them to wear with new service uniforms.
-
I am very satisfied with the purchase. I have used these gloves for shooting, photography, mountain climbing, and as summer motorcycle gloves, and they performed well in every situation. They are very comfortable, provide a secure grip, and offer great protection for the back of the hand. It is easy to pick up tiny objects with them, such as a BB pellet, load a magazine, or use a phone.
-
The gloves themselves are very comfortable, the back is durable, but the front wore out after just a month. They weren't used in tough conditions – it looks like the front might only last for one summer. Overall, it's not bad, but the front could be more durable.
-
These are the best gloves I have had, they protect the hand very well and provide a good grip on various surfaces. The thinner version provides excellent feel – I would definitely buy them again. I recommend them.
-
These are great gloves, perfect for handling weapons. I'm impressed by the quality. I recommend them to anyone looking for the perfect gift or still hesitating.
-
Well-made Mechanix gloves. They have a strong black color and are very durable. They look good and at the range, you hardly feel them on your hands. Hands do not sweat quickly in them.
-
I previously had the version without leather protectors; these are very similar but much bulkier on the outside. It's harder to put them in your pocket or fold them, but they offer good finger protection (except the index finger), which really dampens and protects well, while still not hindering movement. The size is the same as in other Mechanix models. Using a phone is possible, but not easy. They have a better grip than other Mechanix gloves thanks to the leather surface. I recommend them; for me, they feel like a second skin.
-
Solid quality for a reasonable price. They work well both at the range and on the training ground. Even while wearing the gloves, you can feel the trigger well. I definitely recommend them.
-
These are yet another pair of gloves from this company I've bought and once again I'm very satisfied. They are durable, comfortable, and fit hands well, making precise work easier.
-
The best gloves I have had – they protect the back of the hand well, provide a good grip on various surfaces, and protect the hand perfectly. The thinner model provides very good palm feel – I would definitely buy them again.

Solidly made, comfortable – I recommend them.

The gloves are well-fitting, thin, and very comfortable. I recommend them.
